Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead towards Bled. In Bled at the traffic lights, the signs for Pokljuka point us to the right. Ahead we drive through Gorje and past the abandoned ski slope Zatrnik to Rudno polje on Pokljuka (large parking lot, barracks and shooting range). From here we continue straight on a macadam road which a little further brings us to a crossroad, where we continue right (left Uskovnica). We follow this road to a parking lot at the end of the road (near are signposts for a mountain pasture Konjščica).
Path description:
From the parking lot at the end of the road, we continue on a wide and at first ascending cart track in the direction of the mountain pasture Konjščica. Cart track, which goes immediately into a dense forest, quickly flattens and after few minutes of easy walking turns into a footpath which continues by the left bank of the stream Ribnica. When the path gets very close to the mentioned stream it turns slightly to the right and it ascends steeper. Higher, the path flattens and out of the forest brings us on the bottom edge of ample Konjščica. Here the path turns slightly to the left, crosses a stream and after few additional strides, it brings us to cheese cottage on the mountain pasture Konjščica. From the cheese cottage, we continue on a pleasant path, which in few minutes of a light ascent brings us on the upper edge of the mountain pasture. Here the path goes in a lane of dwarf pines and bushes and gradually starts ascending steeper. In the upper part of the ascent towards Jezerca the path from Rudno polje joins from the right, and we continue straight on a moderately steep path, which in few minutes of additional walking brings us to Jezerca, where the path flattens. Here are also signposts, which point us to the right following the signs »Viševnik«.
At first, we walk on a gentle footpath in the direction towards Mali Draški vrh. After that, the path turns a little to the right and starts ascending through the valley between Mali Draški vrh and Viševnik. At first, we are ascending on the left side of the valley, and in the upper part path turns slightly to the right and follows an ascent by a crumbly slope to Srenjski preval.
From Srenjski preval we continue right (straight downwards Rudno polje and Lipanca, left Studorski preval and Mali Draški vrh) on the path which ascends diagonally over a relatively crumbly slope (dangerous for slipping). Higher, the path passes on a west side of the ridge and flattens a little. Next follows a diagonal ascent on the path which runs by the main ridge of Viševnik. Only few meters below the summit, the path crosses a shorter exposed ledge, after that without any bigger problems we step to the summit of Viševnik.
On the way: Planina Konjščica (1438m), Srenjski preval (1959m)
Trip can be extended to: Mali Draški vrh
